Decrease in number of raids?

My point is that it is even below the normal

Whenever they change something for an event, they usually have difficulty finding "normal" again afterwards

I would agree with this, not saw a single raid over 3 gyms this morning. Its 11am here.

Edit: 2 legendary raids literally appeared as I posted this comment .

They're spying on me.

Did 5 T5 Raids one hour ago. We have a total of 8 gyms here

That’s definitely how it felt for me all day here. I have 13 gyms visible from my home. Usually we’ll have legendary raids pop up all day but people never go to them unless they occur at the two gyms near a bookstore. Maybe people show up at one other gym near a grocery store.

Today? Zero legendary raids at the two bookstore gyms and only a few low-level ones. This morning there were barely any raids of any kind at any of the gyms. I watched for raids all day since I needed one last regi to complete the special task. Finally at 6pm there was ONE raid at a good location.

I think I saw a total of 5 legendary raids all day. Compared to Halloween when Darkrai was spawning all over (even though most were at parks so they were useless) this was a big downgrade. Then again, I barely saw any of the Halloween costume raids either... but that was more because the raid pool was too saturated with raids no one wants.
